What should I do if I need to facilitate

retrospective for 50 people, but I don’t

know any facilitation technique. Give

me a tip.

Combine these people into

groups: 10 groups 5 people

each. Work with groups as it

were individuals

How should I deal with a big number of

questions coming to me from a large

group that I’m teaching Agile. How to

make my answers interesting for most of

the participants.

Use Brainwriting technique and

Questions Backlog instrument

How to mitigate a discussion that

become a holywar? When some of

the participants blame others and

rest of the group is not very

interested in this conflict situation

First f all try to prevent holywar, using

token, round robin or linking.

If the holywar started, legalize it using

Fishbowl. You can also get the support

from the group asking about meeting

purpose and agenda.

I’m coaching several teams,

and members of the teams

has various level of

understanding of meeting

topic (e.g. Scrum). How can

I make the meeting effective

in case there are people who

know a lot on the topic and

there are those how are

completely new to it?

Use Expose-the-

system-to-itself and

World-café

Within our company there are

teams that have good

expertise in some domains,

while other teams has

knowledge in other areas.

How can I create a system of

information sharing among

them?

Brownian motion

The team ignores me, e.g.

- Involved completely doing

some task;

- Fall asleep because of your 30

minutes talk;

- Lost focus;

- Whispering with one another;

- Rule of risen hand

- Speak quietly

- Use microphone

- Game

- Café-break

- Use your legs

I need to get 100 people acquainted

values, principles, practices of Scrum

(or e.g. of your company). How to

persuade people to share their

knowledge, encourage to discuss the

information I’m providing, and also to

get feedback from them?

Self-assessment and Radar of

practices, principles and values

I’m going to a new office of our company to share our team/program.

I don’t want to use only slides and lecture format. There will be 80

people and I wish them to be involved.
